Publisher's Synopsis
"A Marine. A Muslim. An American truth-seeker."
In Confessions of a Fundamentalist Muslim, Bilal Abdullah Muhammad-once a proud United States Marine-bares his soul and his struggle to reconcile faith, patriotism, and a post-9/11 America that turned suspicious eyes toward people like him.
From the front lines of military service to the spiritual awakenings that led him to Islam, Bilal weaves a deeply personal narrative of loyalty, betrayal, and resilience. He explores the moral cost of the so-called "War on Terror," challenges government narratives, and shares the rarely heard voices of veterans, whistleblowers, and Muslims who endured surveillance, vilification, and erasure-yet never lost their dignity.
This is not just a memoir. It is a testimony. A reckoning. A call to justice and compassion. Through unflinching honesty, historical evidence, and the courage of lived experience, Bilal invites readers to look past propaganda and politics-and into the heart of what it truly means to be an American.
"I took an oath to defend this country. I still honor it. Even when that means speaking the truth to power."
